Tuesday Talk...

Have you missed me?! It's been over a week since I've posted anything. With going on vacation, I got too busy to blog. I hate that! But I'm back & this week in Tuesday Talk with Jessica, I'm gonna talk about my Memorial Day weekend which started last Thursday.

I had originally just had Friday off but then decided to take a half day on Thursday to get Up North a little earlier & then just decided to take the whole dang day off as my cousin, Jennifer, was being induced that morning & I thought that I might be able to meet my new baby cousin before I ventured. By the time, she had him & got cleaned up & such, I was already an hour into my trip...believe me, if it would have been less, I probably would have turned around. But I headed up & was glad to get up there early.

We pretty much just hung out chitchatting, eating & such until it was time to hit the sack.

Friday, I took my grandmother into Minocqua to do our usual shopping/lunch date. I was so proud of my self, I went into my favorite sports store & only bought decals for the Captiva. When we hit up Minocqua Fudge, I ended up buying over two pounds of taffy. No jokes.

We spent the rest of the afternoon playing games in the camper & chatting. That night we went out for fish, stopped for some ice cream & came back to play some more games before going to bed.

Saturday, I made some French toast for breakfast & then we just hung out (seeing a pattern) until we had visits from my mom's ex-husband & my husband. Paul & I did get to take a walk down to the lake between rainstorms.

Then we headed off to the typical Wisconsinite thing for a Saturday night - a supper club for drinks & prime rib. I actually tried a Sloe Gin Fizz & liked it! :)

After dinner, I said goodbye to Paul as he headed home & me back to the campground with the grandparents. Again, we hung out & did some coloring in my adult coloring books & then headed off to bed with rain falling.

Sunday, we got things packed up & hit the road. I ended up stopping in Wausau for some Panera Bread all by myself. Since I didn't have any way to access Facebook from the campground, I checked that out while I enjoyed my bread, Mac & Cheese & Bear Claw. Yum! When I got home, I got unpacked, watched some Orphan Black & just relaxed.

Yesterday was the day, the day I would meet my new cousin! So, I got my butt outta bed, showered, ran a few errands, picked up lunch & headed to my cousin's for the day. I got to love up on my new cousin & the new big brother. It was a great day!

My new cousin, "T". I love, love, love him! I cannot tell you how long I snuggled with him yesterday but it was a long time. I really did not want to leave last night but I figured that since I had spent about six hours there, it was time to go home & get ready for the work week. I was/am so jealous that my cousin, Jennifer, & her husband are now off until July to spend time with their new addition. So awesome!

I am thankful...that tonight after work, I'm gonna pick up some din-din for my sister & I & then we're gonna play some old school Nintendo games on her projection screen. Awhoo hoo! I am so happy that my sister is back home! :)

I am thankful...for Stan Lee. I know that I've probably said it before but this guy is pretty dang amazing with the Marvel characters & stories that came to be from his mind. I just wish that I had that kind of brain to think up all the crazy things/beings he does.

I am thankful...that in four weeks, I'll be in Las Vegas. Just me & my hubby hopefully catching a few shows, winning some dough & having some good grub. We'll for sure be seeing Love by Cirque & then I wanna get him tickets to either Cris Angel or Penn & Teller as a birthday gift. I tried talking him into seeing Britney but he hasn't caved yet, I'm hoping that he will cuz if I get to see Britney, it would be amazing cuz I love her!

So, back in the day, there was a linkup
about weekly lessons. I really liked it but since it has crumbled & the
linkup is no more. :( I really liked doing it so I'm going to
continue doing it, join me! I've Learned...that when Sunshine gets an attitude with me & I make her go to her room & rethink how she speaks to me, she comes down ten minutes later & is sweet as pie. I even got three "I Love Yous" from her in a span of about thirty minutes. Ha! I've Learned...that I need to make another attempt at the Grand Mac from McDonald's. I tried to do it last week but did not finish it (I finished the fries & the apple pie though). That was not good enough for my grandfather so I need to have another go at it so I think that since it's just me & Sunshine again tonight, we're gonna pick up McDonald's again & give it another shot.

I've Learned...that once the weather warms up, even if just for a lil bit, I think Spring…
